Debate on Drupal Route Configuration: PHP Attributes vs. YAML
The debate surrounding the implementation of PHP attributes for route discovery in the Chromatic channel continues, provoking contrasting perspectives. Mark Dorison and Kristofer Widholm debate the idea of replacing Drupal’s current YAML-based routing definitions with PHP attributes.
With the potential to replace the current YAML-based route configuration approach, the proposed change 365 prompts the impact of integrating PHP attributes and the associated benefits and drawbacks. Developers emphasize the efficiency of separate files for easier reference navigation while acknowledging the enhanced discoverability offered by PHP attributes, particularly for new users.
Deliberations also delve into the viability of using YAML for its clarity and expressiveness versus potential complexities introduced by additional dependencies. The discourse showcases a balanced evaluation of the technical considerations, reflecting developers' thoughtful engagement with the evolution of Drupal's routing system.
